Thanks to everyone in Fargo-Moorhead and the surrounding community for making Fill The Dome 2011 yet another success! We couldn't have done it with out you!
All the food has been boxed up, however it is still being loaded out the Fargodome and being weighed at the Great Plains Food Bank... as well as money count being tabulated. We will publish our results (as well as distribute those to all the media outlets) as soon as they become available... we anticipate that being sometime this afternoon.
Thanks again for the support!

While this does fall short of our 110 in 2010 goal, we are still very happy we the results and can't thank everyone enough for all the support. 97 tons of food is still a LOT of food (and still more food than raised in 2007 and 2008!) and the $75,000 we raised can provide for 375,000 meals. We were still able to make a huge impact, and we've gotten a step closer to solving hunger in Fargo-Moorhead.
So thanks again for all of your support of Fill The Dome 2010, we couldn't have done what we did without you!
PS- Photos from this years even are now on the Photos page, and the group info will be updated today!
We are still in the process of counting money and loading up food. Once we have final numbers we will be sure to post them here. Thanks again for all of your support!
